Hey my real self family! I hope you are all well... Quick update... Do you remember last year? My 31st birthday consisted of being laid up in bed, still in a considerable amount of pain, stressing as to whether my hematoma belly would subside. Well I got over it and at the beginning of this year I had a firm word to myself that there was absolutely no point spending all that money on surgery to let the weight come back on again. I have a personal trainer who I see twice a week and I go to the gym about 4/5 times a week.. I do weight training in an attempt to increase my muscle and lose body fat, it's all resistance stuff. I've kept my diet clean, this has to be a way of life, I'm simply not that lucky to be able to eat what I want, if I was I wouldn't have ended up here in the first place! Haha! I'm still about 18lbs from my ideal target... But last Saturday I celebrated my 32nd birthday... This Saturday I fly out to NYC... Ideally once I reach target I may go back to Istanbul for some more lipo to get rid of those stubborn fat cells! I will when I have time post some nudey pics, I couldn't have wished for better scars! So here's a pic from Saturday...

Dr Ileri (LIV hospital) is amazing. She's a total artist. My breast and TT scar are so neat and minimal and I can feel my nipples and tummy already. She's a complete perfectionist!

Thanks my sweetheart... Decided to stop SW and focus on training, everything just started dropping off. SW was driving me nuts as the scales would go up and down and I'd be working so hard at the gym. Gotta keep at it though, have quite a few trips planned, way of life now xx

Well... Had a revision of the entire surgery. Went to another surgeon. Updated my review, even posted disgusting supposedly "after" pics. Gotta finish new review though and post updated pics. Far from perfect, but HUGE improvement. But seriously, girl.... You look amazing!

You'll get there, I read your review and I'm so sorry you've been through what you have! I keep watching extreme weight loss make over and they always seem to bypass the surgery stage, I'd love to see that part of the process. But we live and learn and you'll get there... Look how far you've come!! Big hugs xx

Can you believe it was this time last year it was done and dusted and I expected to wake up looking like a supermodel haha boy was I wrong, I started freaking out with hematoma a etc but then I found this site and all of you lovely ladies who were going through exactly the same thing and you got me through. Think I was posting ten times a day back then! Wow. 6th January 2014 I had my surgery... Well a year on, no complaints. I'm still not where I want to be in terms of weight but love my new body. Am in the gym approx 5 times a week, have a personal trainer who pushes me to the max. I really want to avoid surgery on my arms/thighs so doing what I can to lose body fat and gain muscle... May have some lipo done but only when down to ideal weight!
Just wanted to send my love to all those who helped me, always here to lend support. Hope you are all well, big hugs and kisses xx

Morning my lovelies, how are you all? So I'm in the third week of my eating clean and healthy and I've lost 12lbs already!! So happy you wouldn't believe! I can do this... I'm not just aiming to lose the 14lbs I put on after surgery but I'm going to try and get the 14lbs off after that. If I stick to my plan I hope it'll be off I no time! Had a hen party last weekend and managed to avoid temptation and not drink, have another hen this weekend in Spain fingers crossed my will power holds out!

Question: now I've got back to my exercising, the area where I had my seroma swells and gets sore, like a bruised feeling. I'm worried there's still a gap there... Do I need to pay a visit back to the hospital? I should get some pics up for you all but I'll wait for a bit more weigh to come off ;) xx

Hi there, I had my TT done by Dr Umran Ileri 5 weeks ago. I'm experiencing a similar complication like yours. One side of my incision is healing a bit slower and has white spots that you said were new skin..... I was wondering if I could see a picture of your scar now to see how things are looking in the long run. I hope everything has been going well for you with the weight loss and exercise!!!
